Game Beats
A mysterious virus of alien origin is sweeping through San Francisco. It is up to the Center for Epidemic Research and Control (CERC) to track down and find Patient Zero before it is forced to enact the Cepheus Protocol. Command your squad, save civilians, and stop the Pangu Virus before it is too late.
Main Objectives:
- Train and level a single squad of up to 8 members as you search the city for Patient Zero.
- Build, train defenders, and safeguard your base from the Pangu Virus’ victims.
- Manage your squad as you attempt to control the spread of the virus.
Release Date Change: Early Access April 17, 2020
We’re excited to announce that we're moving up the Early Access release date to April 17 of this year!

Programming
We've got a first look at the patrol flags! You can set these for your unit members at your base to follow certain patterns (with the one shown being a more extreme example) but will ensure your base are is completely secured:
UI
The team has been hard at work on finalizing what the UI will look like. Although these are still WIP, we're really happy with how it's looking:
Concept Art
The concept artists have been killing it once again, and although we weren't able to submit the shot below for the Gallery at Dreamhack Anaheim, we thought it was way too good not to show it off!
Level Design
Our level designers have also been hitting it out of the park and the city/map is looking better than ever. In case you're wondering, almost all of our assets were made by our team!
